Using data stores to do the real job of identity online.

The data planets align

Personal data stores, or life management platforms, are nothing new. The idea has been around for a while, but our appetite has lagged. Finally, the planets of usability, regulation, and use cases have aligned to create a space for the technology to blossom. It has taken a long time, but we have finally entered the age of the customer identity platform, just to see it quickly move on to a new era - the age of ‘Digital Me’. Identity data is not me, but it can carry out jobs for me online with the right tools to do so.
